Our take
Pager is a virtual care platform that delivers a raft of different services to healthcare clients. The app enables patients to schedule appointments and gain access to carers and medics, while delivering tele-medicine, after-care follow-up, and a range of other options.
Reflecting the huge growth in telehealth, the app has already become popular since being rebranded as Pager in 2014. The company has entered into numerous partnerships with existing healthcare providers, for example inking a deal with Horizon Healthcare Services in September 2017.
Private finance has been interested in Pager on a regular basis, with a Series C of $50 million having been secured in September 2021, in a round led by Health Catalyst Capital.
Competition is fierce in the telehealth market, with the niche expected to be worth $191.7 billion by 2025. Pager therefore already has significant competition in this space, with the likes of NextGen Healthcare EHR, RevenueWell, SimplePractice and OnCall Health offering alternative solutions.
